University Avenue project update

To clear the lots located south of University Avenue and on both sides of 26th Street, which will soon be redeveloped into a mixed-use space, two homes need to be relocated. The homes, which were originally scheduled to be relocated in mid-August, are now scheduled to be moved in October. The relocation date was pushed back due to the many logistics and parties involved. The move involves careful planning and coordination between city officials, Des Moines Police, and MidAmerican Energy.
